Our own playlist!

Hi dear all,
In class we’ve been talking about music so… why not creating our own playlist to be played in class while we are doing some grammar exercises? I’m sure it will be great fun. The idea is that you share in the comment section a link to a you tube video of your favourite song. It would be better if it is in English. You can also tell us:
– Why do you like that song?
– Who is the singer?
– Who is the songwriter?
– What’s the story behind the song (if there’s any)?
– What do you know about the singer or band?
and whatever you’d like to share. Looking forward to your songs. I’d love to listen to them.

And here goes my favourite song. It is the song “In the name of love” by U2. You can listen to it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HnbOV7RWME8 I like the song because it is very calm and relaxing. Apart from that, it gives a message. The story behind the song is very important. The song was written by Bono, the leader of the band. It is about the life of Martin Luther King. He was a black man who fought for the rights of negroes in the US. As you may remember from the story we read in class about Lutz Long and Jesse James, people discriminated against coloured people. To sum up, the song is about the importance of fighting for a good cause.

How quick you are! I don’t know anything about the singers that Franco has chosen. Could you please tell me who they are? Where are they from? Why do you like them?
I love the songs Alan has posted. What’s the story behind those songs? You may check in wikipedia…
Looking forward to your answers.
